Multi-Thread Support #2

Open C-Pauli opened 4 years ago

Hello,

I recently came across your perl script and find it extremely useful! Since I'm hoping to screen my primers on 100's of genomes, I was wondering if you've considered multi-thread support for this script, or if there would be a way to have it run different genomes simultaneously?

I am currently able to start up two terminals and run the program simultaneously, but I would love for it to be able to handle a list of target genomes, and run each analysis on it's own thread without having hundreds of terminals running!

I can provide the "for" bash loop I am using to run a batch of genomes through your tool, but I am unsure how to get this run simultaneously instead of consecutively.

Any help or guidance you can provide would be greatly appreciated and thanks again for developing this fantastic tool!

Best, Christopher Pauli
